lol im not here to have a tit for tat with you on this guy. No one is infallible. No body has been able to predict all that has transpired with 100% accuracy.
If there is another source out there, with similar experience, who is willing to break down the analysis into logical steps, and share it with the public, I'll happily listen. I'm interested in piecing all this together, not barracking for a side.

He got Mariupol right, when until recently, the popular opinion was that the Russians would be pushed back. And unlike what we've been told, his opinion from the beginning was that Kiyv and Kharkiv was not a primary objective (I think?), that now seems about right. He has said Donbas is the objective, lets see what transpires.

Very easy to nit pick on what is a very fast moving and complex scenario. Plenty got it wrong from the start, even on this side of the ledger.

I bet you the other sparky is still more qualified than some journo or AFF member sitting on the other side of the planet with no electrical experience.
